Mousesports takes EMS Cup #2 and leads the rankings

Mousesports takes first place in the second cup of ESL Major Series One. The success of the cup places them in first place as far as the cup rankings go; the top twelve will move on to play the group stage after all four cups are done.

After a strong performance two cups in a row - 3rd/4th in Cup #1 and 1st in Cup #2 - mousesportsare now leading the charts, followed by Absolute Legends and RoX.Kis. Absolute Legends have also delivered steady results in these cups whereas RoX.KiS and rat in the dark seem quite more uneven in their results. Nevertheless, all four teams are high up on in the cup ranking where the twelve highest ranked move on to the group stage. Last season this sage was topped by Alliance.

Out of the top eight of last season, Alliance, Natus Vincere and dd.Dota have not marked the chart yet with any points whatsoever as neither of the three teams have participated in any of the cups yet. The same goes for Virtus.pro who were ranked in the top eight before the Playoffs last season, but in the end they had to surrender their place since they could not attend the offline event. Cup #3 takes place on Monday and Tuesday next week.
